Chapter 486: The Little Scrivener's Warning
"Do you want us to give up the commission and go back to Rocklac?" Feng Chen was taken aback, "How can this work?" ”
"Yes, it was not easy to catch up with a large-scale commission, and everyone barely stayed after a fierce battle with the submarine dragon. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoNow that Fengshan Dragon has not arrived, how can he leave like this? Ailu Black Carbon didn't understand either.
"No......" Lu Yingying's cheeks were red when he was watched by a group of hunters, but it was caused by excitement, "I don't want everyone to go back to Locklac, but to go back to Golden Feather City directly, the farther away from this desert the better." ”
Since the challenge festival, the girl has had an inexplicable connection with Lu Xiu, the dragon man who crossed the blood to him. Although the mechanism is still unclear, no matter how far apart they are, the little scribe can sense the crisis that the Chosen Hunter is experiencing, or even about to experience. After a few experiences, Lu Yingying has touched a little doorway, and can even use this to warn the small hunting group many times before they go hunting. Everyone present is no longer a stranger to this, except for the black charcoal brother, Feng Chen, and Manyun.
"Is it that serious?" Qin Shuiyu rubbed his chin, "How are you feeling now?" ”
"It's bad...... Lu Yingying said in a low voice, "the extent of this time...... It has not been since the end of the hunting festival. ”
"I'm afraid it's not because of last night's submarine dragons." Jia Xiao pondered, "Since the establishment of the Little Hunting Group, the danger of last night can be ranked in the forefront. ”
"Then it's okay." Big Bear breathed a sigh of relief, "The Submarine Dragon has been killed, even if there is any danger, it was only last night, and now it is over." He said half comfortingly, half ostentatiously.
"No, not yet." Lu Yingying shook her head vigorously, and quietly glanced at Lu Xiu beside her. The latter smiled awkwardly, "Don't look at me, the blood is mine, but I haven't figured out until now, what effect it has had on you." ”
Not getting the support he wanted, the little scribe bit his lip and explained, "After seeing Lu Xiu...... After meeting you, my sense of crisis is still very strong. I also felt the battle between everyone and the submarine dragon last night, but unfortunately, compared to the next danger, this can only be regarded as insignificant. ”
"So, what's going to happen next?" Feng Manyun leaned his hand against the wall, only to hear in the clouds, "Will there be a larger-scale beast tide?" ”
"Miss Lu's induction is not like this." The cat whispered to the white-clad hunter. According to the girl herself, the abilities obtained from Luxiu's blood were not superhuman foreknowledge, but more like the battle instincts of the Ailu clan. When there is danger out of sight, the hair of the adult orcs will involuntarily shudder. The dragonman's bloodline probably has a similar function, but Lu Xiu himself has not learned it, but he passed it on to the girl through the bloodline first, and judging from Lu Yingying's performance, the dragonman's ability to predict danger is really much stronger than the Ailu clan.
"I'm worried...... None of the hunters moved, and the girl said in a more aggravated tone, "this time you're dealing with an ancient dragon. Unlike in the Swamp, this one is not only an adult, but has also fought against humans many times. Don't say that all of you are injured like this, even if you face it intact, you won't have the slightest strength to fight against it. After the Fengshan Dragon migrated here, you should even attract the slightest attention from it......"
"Miss Lu......" Before the little scribe could continue, Jia Xiao raised his arm and suppressed the girl's words, "We believe in you." You've warned us of the dangers of hunting many times, and most of the time......" he put it another way, "and every time you proved right." The commission of soil sampling, everyone was chased out of nearly 100 kilometers by dozens of jumping dragons, and if it were not for your prior warning, some of us might have been lost in the dense forest. Even if you're not a hunter, we still see you as the eighth member of the Little Hunter Pack, and no one in this room will take your words as alarmist. ”
"You are my companions, and of course I can't watch you in distress and do nothing myself." Hearing this, the little scholar's brow slowly relaxed, but he still looked at the hunters in the sand hut with concern.
"But......" the boy smiled apologetically, "we are hunters after all, and this identity is inherently accompanied by all kinds of dangers, and we cannot and will not escape. If you just retreat in anticipation of danger, all the hunters in the entire New World will lose their jobs. ”
"Don't worry, there are not only small hunting groups that have settled in this camp, but also the combined team of the three large hunting groups in Golden Feather City, and even an airship. The monsters are coming, and with them in front, let's just follow the back and fight the autumn breeze from a distance, and we won't get into trouble. Feng Chen also helped, the girl's concern was beyond words, but this was not a reason for the little hunting group to give up a chance to touch the top of the hunter world.
"But this time is different!" Hearing the other party's obvious refusal, the girl became anxious again, "Continue to stay in the sand sea, what you have to face is a danger ten times stronger than the Diving Dragons, and you will die!" ”
"If that's the case......," the captain narrowed his eyes, "you'd better go back to Lockrac than persuade us." I know it's a bit impersonal, but hunters never turn down the opportunity to touch the ancient dragons, and you can't move any of us to go with you. Continue to stay here, and when the battle begins, don't say it's us, even the airship of the combined team, I'm afraid we won't be able to divide the manpower to protect you. ”
"But......" The little scribe wanted to say something, but in the face of the determined but somewhat unbearable eyes, she didn't know how to speak. The hunters had been blessed many times by the little scribe, and no one was willing to refute her, so they could only express their apologies with their eyes.
"That's it......" Lu Yingying sighed, "Before leaving, I knew that no matter how much I advised everyone at this time, you would not be willing to return to Locklac." In that case, wait a minute, and I'll lead the horse in. ”
…………
"Bandages, cold drinks, dry food, flares, ......" Lu Yingying overturned everything from the box, and the small sand house was filled with a dazzling array of supplies, "These restores were handed over to me by Master Tresall himself before leaving," the girl raised the dark green vial in the air, "It is said that the effect is stronger than the standard potion." There is no need to save, and it is more important to heal the injury early than how many gold coins there are. ”
"Thank you so much, Master." Lu Xiu was busy picking it up.
"Say what?" Captain Qin glared, "I should thank Miss Lu, Locklac is so far away, it is already a great difficulty to be able to rush all the way, not to mention carrying a whole box of supplies." ”
"It's not that exaggerated...... The harvest festival is imminent, and the area around the post road has been cleared by the retreating hunting groups. I didn't encounter any monsters along the way. The girl shook her head and smiled comfortingly, "It's just that the journey is a bit boring, and it seems that being a hunter is not as interesting as I imagined." ”
The little scribe said it lightly, but in the face of the yellow sand, the desert storms that could occur from time to time, and the violent temperature difference between day and night, even the members of the Little Hunting Regiment had really shed a layer of skin when they came here from Locklac. Not to mention that Lu Yingying has never undergone professional training, and her physique is far inferior to any member of the hunting group. The girl in front of her inhaled from her nostrils from time to time, and when she spoke, she was also angry, afraid that she had already felt the wind cold. Noticing this stubble, the guilt in the hearts of the one-star hunters present for failing to follow her advice increased a little.
"Thank you......" Xiaolongren said again, there was already something strange in his tone, and the hands of the two handing over the props were parted with a touch, the girl turned her head away, and said in a hurry to hide something, "There is still ......"
She took out a few strange-looking traps from the bottom of the box and stacked them on the ground one by one: "These are the ones that the master instructed me to hand over to the dust." ”
The strange mechanism is similar to the explosive mechanism of the "flying man" on the little Orion, but it is not connected to the armor. Instead, there are elastic straps, which seem to work immediately as a pendant and are manually tied to the hunting suit.
The battle of the young Sharon King made Tresor see more possibilities in the "flying man". High explosives can be used as an aid, but they are also powerful disposable weapons. As early as the end of the promotion commission for Dust, he proposed to add a buckle that could disassemble the propulsion mechanism separately.
However, the dragon man thought further, and in a few days, he had completely separated the "flying man" from the hunting suit and made it into a pendant that could be attached to any hunting suit. This not only makes it convenient for hunters to adjust, increase or decrease the mechanism according to their own hunting habits, but also transforms it into a tactical prop with several times the power of the standard bomb at a critical time, which has the effect of turning the tide of the battle and making a final decision.
"That's really...... That's great! ”
Feng Chen's eyes stared excitedly at the revised "Flying Man", participating in the testing and improvement of this project from beginning to end, and the boy could naturally see the wonder of these small mechanisms at a glance. The modified trap is a lot more bloated than it was when it was embedded in a hunting suit, but it is still within acceptable limits. The surface of the mechanism has not been carefully polished because of the haste with which it was made, but there is a wild and violent beauty in the rough processing marks, and one does not have the slightest doubt about their wartime performance.
The one-star hunter took the little things into his arms under the envious gaze of everyone, and if it weren't for the fact that his arms were still limp and weak, he would have liked to load them up and try it now. The mechanism that sealed the dust arm had been burned in the previous battle, and this set of supplies was like a charcoal in the snow for him. At this stage, only his own hunting suit has been specially insulated and blast-proof, and even if his companions around him are greedy, it will be useless.
"Hurrying away...... That's all I had to bring with me. Emptying a whole chest, the little scribe was still worried. The girl had no power to tie the chickens, and only in this way could she help the hunters. She sighed gloomily, as if she was making a final attempt, and then advised, "Can't you really go back?" The reward of the Submersible Dragon alone is enough for everyone to cope with it for a while. There is no shortage of commissions in the hunter world, if you want to take risks, at least heal your injuries first, can't you? ”
As soon as the words fell, as if an appointment had been made, there was a "lifting" sound in the hut, Feng Manyun, who was leaning against the wall, Lu Xiu, who was squatting on the ground to pack supplies, and Feng Chen, who was holding the "flying man" mechanism, straightened up at the same time.
"What's wrong?" Lu Yingying was taken aback, "It's not that I said something wrong, right?" ”
"It's not you......" Lu Xiu stood up, blocked the girl behind him, pressed the little scholar with one hand, but his eyes looked straight towards the door, "Don't move." ”
Seeing that the eyes of the three fellow villagers were all facing the door, the rest of the companions also looked out for unknown reasons.
"What's going on?" The cat's ears were turned sideways out the door, but it didn't hear any suspicious sounds.
"I don't know......" The white-clothed hunter left a sentence, picked up the sword standing beside him and snatched out the door decisively. Feng Chen and Lu Xiu followed, and also rushed out of the narrow sand hut. The three of them stood outside the door, all looking warily into the distance. In the afternoon, the sea of sand was as usual, and the stagecoach tied to the stake was grinding its hooves restlessly. Before the terrible smell of blood dissipated, even the predatory mosquitoes in the camp were cautious, for fear of making any noise.
"Why are you three suddenly crazy?" Xiong Fuji also came out, and when he saw that there was nothing unusual around, he scolded impatiently, "I thought it was a monster coming." Neither the black charcoal brother nor the cat reacted, do you think you are stronger than them? ”
"It's coming." The dragon man turned his face and said to Xiong Fuji with a stern expression.
"I always thought it was all my hallucination." Feng Manyun rubbed his eyes and said in disbelief, "I didn't expect it to be true......"
"What are you talking about......"
"Didn't you see that?" Feng Dust raised his head into the distance.
"Look at what? Sun? The stout boy restlessly put his hands on the pergola and looked into the distance, but saw nothing but the yellow horizon.
"It's a sandstorm!" Ailu's perception was really different from ordinary people, and as soon as she stepped out of the room, the cat screamed, "It's so fast!" ”
Near the horizon, a strange darkness concealed the gloom of the past. The breeze whipped up the blood-smelling sand and sawdust on the ground. The afternoon was the hottest time in the sea of sand, and the hunters in front of the house actually felt the slightest chill from the oncoming wind.
"That's not the worst, I'm already starting to regret not listening to Miss Lu." Feng Chen smiled bitterly, "It's the east over there, and we can't go back." ”
"It's not just the East!" The cat climbed to the open area of the roof in two steps, and looked around with round eyes, "Damn, Sandstorm...... Why is it everywhere? ”
Dozens of kilometers away, on the airship of the joint team of the hunting group, the observer walked down from the observation platform with a shocked face. The other side of the camera is now occupied by the yellow sand. Sand and dust poured in from all directions, as if spiritual, casting an impenetrable cage in the center of the thundering sand sea with fierce winds and angry sand. Xishu and its surrounding hundreds of kilometers of hunting grounds are all encircled inside.
"The airship can't take off again...... old crew said earnestly to the three captains, "it's still too late to land and meet the sandstorm on the spot." ”
